Kalyan,

You do not need TOEFL for Darden. I personally asked Darden admission officer this question. He answered that if your undergraduate degree is in English then you do not need TOEFL.

Darden conducts the information sessions in India too. It conducted sessions at Mumbai, Hyderabad, Bangalore,New Delhi in Aug. I went to one in Delhi.

The experience was fine. If you have any specific question i would be glad to answer those.
